Tired Thursdays

Image
Man I almost forgot to post today. I meant to post earlier, but then I laid down. I didn’t really get to sleep, but the rest still was nice. Seems to happen daily around 3pm. I did have a meeting at 10 with important people and now I have more work to do. Hopefully I’ll be able to get a lot done tomorrow and maybe this weekend. I know I shouldn’t work outside business hours, but it gives me the freedom to do other things during business hours and makes overall work less stressful.  It took me a second to remove my 2nd chin. Angles really matter on photos. Didn’t know I had a 2nd chin. TLG!!!

Wild Wednesdays

Image
Was walking at lunch to drop off stuff and planned on grabbing gyro plate from the same spot I always go. Ended up seeing another spot on my way back to office. Hope it’s good. It costs more and didn’t come with drink or extra rice. Probably won’t go back, but I was already committed to try once I walked in. Thought I lost the post (didn’t save), but I didn’t. Anyhow, it was good, but smaller portion. Probably go to original spot or different spot. ATEN!!!

Man, I was tired today. Probably should have slept earlier. Damn the phone distraction. Didn’t get much done (not as much as I wanted), but did get a lot done. Need to get some good rest tonight. Tomorrow will be just as busy. Debated going into office today. Likely going into office tomorrow. Still need to take Marcus to airport tonight. ATEN!!

Sequoia Tourney

So I’m taking notes now in my notes g olf course is like Tilden Park in Berkeley from initial appearance. Waiting to tee off. Shotgun format starts at noon. Good thing we weren’t too early. Jay got us divot tools and markers. Nice guy. My name is spelled Winn Nguyen. Wonder who I’m filling in for. TJ says that he goes to a few of these so he told Jay he should invite someone else next time. I guess if it’s one of the golf guys I wouldn’t mind playing, but maybe not with Jay by himself? Assuming I’m invited in the future. The event is for Asian Health Resources. I hope they make money, but it seems like an expensive outing. Lots of Asian people here. I’ve been hearing conversations and I wonder and make up my own stories about who these people are. Some of these guys seem kinda douchey, but again it’s okay way to be judgmental.   Jay’s 4th is late. Might be a waste of money. Could have invited someone else. Guys next to us have boba already. Missing out. He actually didn’t show up a...

Sunday Fun Day

Image
Did a lot today (at least more than normal Sundays). Only oops was getting dad soup, but the thought was there.  Waiting for gas now. Then bank. Gotta sleep good tonight cause gotta golf tomorrow. Hope you had a good day. Maybe it’s cause you consumed the body of Christ. Amen. TTQD!!!

Everyday Is Special

Image
But today might be extra special. So far so good. I made to practice putts from long range. I saw some deer on the course and they even stopped to say “hi” to me. Oh and I won a little money on MJ after losing almost all my monies. Got good snacks too. Might be a slow day on the golf course. Even as the third group out, it seems that we should still strive to be the first group. But some people complained it’s too early. They’re getting old. I wonder how I’ll do without sleep. Peter sure complains a lot. A fourth random person joined us so maybe it’ll will slow us down. Maybe he’ll choose the tee box we play from (how far). TLG!!!

🥵

Image
It was hot today. Got a lot done. Some work and some personal. Didn’t get enough done though. But at least I got to enjoy the day. Got some Bambu, but gave Jon the waffle. Now I’m about to play MJ. Gonna be a busy weekend, but at least a few of the normal obligations is not required this weekend. It’s almost like cancelled plans. New free time. Woohoo. TLG!!!

Soo Much Mail

Image
Looks like someone “has Covid” supposedly, again. Anyhow that means we’ll be covering for her. On the positive, I’m actually negative. Finally got a break from all the work today. Just prepped meat. Gonna take a nap and then wake up and prep dinner. Time sure went by fast when busy. ATEN!!!

Danh The Breaker

Image
I’m breaking things today. First the towel holder. Now this: Metal is stronger than plastic I guess. Was debating if Tony could print me one 😂. Anyhow, it’s surprisingly cool today. Nice breeze. Just a little slow. But any day golfing is better than not. Unless you’re Peter who thinks you need to love yourself enough not to golf when it’s hot. Didn’t want to argue with him, but that means you don’t love golf enough. Which is okay. I love you more than golf. ATENHG!!!

I Need A Drink

Image
Some people like alcohol. I like sweet chewies and caffeine. Sadly it doesn’t seem to help me stay awake. I  sleepy too. Gonna lay down for a short nap. Then I’m off to run errands and pick up food. TTQD!!!

Juneteenth (Observed)

Image
Just realized by Venmo didn’t go through today cause it’s a federal holiday and there’s no mail. Hope the waste pickup still happens tomorrow.  In case you didn’t know. Juneteenth is the day in which slaves were notified they’re free in Galveston, Texas. Nearly 2 years after Lincoln already freed them via the emancipation proclamation. Happy Monday. ATEN!!!

Happy Father’s Day

Image
Am I a father? My wife doesn’t think so. I wonder if that’s why I didn’t get any acknowledgment from her 😂? Either way. That’s a mother there. Not sure who the father is yet. ATEN!!!

Goodbye and Good Luck

Image
Wishing the priest a blessed send off and joyous journey on the next chapter of his life. Actually I took a picture: You printed the picture of us so there’s no need to post it here since you saw it. But you didn’t see this. Hopefully she opens up to you before she goes. Hoping the rest of the evening goes off without a hitch. 🙏 ATEN!!!!

Fri-Yah Sort Of

Image
Good: golf, lunch, bambu, wife, life Bad: Momma drama, work I guess that’s still better than the alternatives. Sometimes it’s hard to focus on the good. But you can’t let perfect be enemy of good is what they say. Working to appreciate. Also got the raise and might make some money driving to Riverside next weekend. TTQD!!

Nap or Nah

Image
I can’t tell if I actually fell asleep, anyhow I’m up now, preparing for dinner. Hope someone enjoys it. I did buy some extra beef since the piece left at home was small and wasn’t sure it would be enough. I did buy a cheaper cut of beef, but I think the marbling was better. Let’s hope it’s good. TTQD!!

Blood Flow

Image
It’s been a long time since I put my feet up. Felt blood settling in my feet. Felt like I was moving all day. So much stuff going on. Finally taking a break now. Then I went to Costco 😂. Didn’t get much work done, but still got lots done. Moving forward. 🥳 ATEN!!!

Busy Week

Image
It’s gonna a busy 2 weeks. Need to sit down and make sure I don’t forget anything. I took this picture because I was waiting for this slow group. It was my 2nd shot on a par 5. Peter asked what I was doing. Killing time. I ended up going left, but the right distance. My ball didn’t fade (turn right) like I planned. Missed the birdie and ended with par. Anyhow, I’m waiting still. Peter is practicing since we’re waiting. I remember the last time I did the same photo and got eagle. Not this time. Marcus just texted me about mom and the water. Need to talk to her. TLG!!!

Happy Wedding Anniversary Day 2

Image
Spent the majority of my day working at work. Who would have thought? Made the day go by real fast and now here I am at home. Had a long day, but doing okay. Look what I found this morning. Also found one in the fridge lol. Saw Tan at work. Glad I was able to help him save $3/day parking. Your mention of gyro made me get that for lunch today. Thanks. Lots done today last necessary thing to do is the blog and wish you happy day 2 of our anniversary. TTQD!!!

Happy Wedding Anniversary

Image
It’s been a year of marriage. Honestly, I could have probably done without it. Not without you, but don’t think marriage really changed anything for me. I’m just as committed today as I was a year ago. But I understand it is very important for you. Here’s to another year and a new chapter to start soon. Still could have gone without it, but I know it’s important to you 😂. TLG!!!

Progress and Setbacks

Image
So busy today. Anyhow, saw the Noom commercial and it’s said, it’s okay to have setbacks as long as you’re making progress (or something along those lines). The seems to be the story of life. Guess what happens here? I hit the ball short, but missed the trees. Hit the ball next to the green on the next shot and end up getting a double bogey (+2). This is supposed to be an easy hole. But I kept playing and eventually finished. That’s golf. That’s life. TLG!!!

No Korean BBQ Today

Image
But I know someone probably wants it. I hope you enjoy the dinner anyhow. Hope you enjoyed your 2nd year of marriage gift early. Also, I got you a push present, but please do not interpret that as an approval of your pregnancy 🤷‍♂️. I just to make sure you don’t feel like you’re missing out.  TLG!!!

Handyman Came Today

Image
Well, actually his brother did. Everything is done for their part. Man, garbage comes early to the old house. I missed the recycling and I was there at 715. Garbage came right after I got there. Feel bad, but probably gonna move the recycling to the to trash so it can get taken all out next week. Still need to do the sealing of metal gate at home. The security film came too…ATEN!!!

Handyman Didn't Come Today

Image
It’s not really womp womp womp since the handyman finished most things and we didn’t pay yet, but I am surprised unless he misspoke when he said he was coming today. I always assume they’re flaky, but he’s been pretty consistent. Hope he’s okay. Wondering if I should reach out to him. I ate this at the Chongs. Bacon and cabbage with rice. What an interesting meal. Cabbage is cheap, bacon is expensive. Good balance overall. ATEN!!!

Random

Image
It hurts here. But I can’t remember if I bumped or hit it. The other one doesn’t hurt so I dunno.  Hoping mom’s appointment goes well today. Lots going on in life. Just trying to keep things organized and working on things I can control. Like my over snacking. Although I am trying to snack healthier. Wonder if I need to try Noom. ATEN!!

Let’s Start With A Pic

Image
(I wanted to grow this in your yard) Just saw a commercial for Fresno and Yosemite. Didn’t know if was same area. That’s a big park. Watching PBS. What I’ve read so far in the book about raising baby French makes me think we’re doing it wrong. Maybe you can read the book too. But I think it’s too late to change the pregnancy part, but we’ll see when I get to the raising part (assuming there is one). Too see if we can do that. I also wonder if eating too much jello (aspartame) is bad for me. I also wonder what gelatin cookies are. Cool story huh? TTCD!!!

Hot and Cold

Image
There’s definitely something to be appreciated about consistency. Sure, roller coasters are exciting and all, but in life they mess with your psyche. Then there’s ⛳️ . Sure it can be frustrating sometimes, but yet oddly satisfying nonetheless. I wonder how or if it’s possible to bring the same perspective to life. I guess maybe the first step is to wake up excited. Geez tomorrow is Monday…TLG!!!

Two In A Row

Image
Another day of golf and some more drama with mama. Hopefully it gets better 🙏. At least we got some rest today. May tomorrow be just as good.  Maybe it’s true that mother in laws can’t get along with wives. 😖  God, please help us all. TLG!!!

50/50

Image
I think there was a movie about this guy who got cancer and had a 50-50 chance to live and he found love or something. Anyhow, seems like life always gives and takes. Really hope mom is okay. If I remember or see God some day, I’ll have to ask the reason for this… This is looking back on a par 5 I thought I might eagle or birdie and ended up with par. Anyhow, the rest of life seems to be going okay so I’m thankful for that. Can’t all be easy right? ATEN!!!

TGIT

Image
It’s pretty much Friday. Only working a little tomorrow. Wow, someone made the bed. 🤯 so much went on today. Went work and had to rearrange errands like Amazon return and gas. But did get important things done. Anyhow, looking forward to weekend. Had a meeting today. Appointments and meetings are the only things that give me a little anxiety. Work in general is okay. TTQD!!!

Good News

Image
Gavin and Mom (both) are okay. Last night/this morning was long, but results are good. Mom’s test results are in range. They didn’t check her blood pressure, but I imagine it’s okay. Em is okay too. Hope today goes well for Em. I found this. Lots to do work wise tomorrow. Makes up for failing to work a lot today. Also moved the last of stuff out of old house. Just mattress left. Good day…TTQD!!!
